Looking at the code (child_open() in child.c, called from
transports/pipe.c), it seems this could be one of two things:

(1) The call to pipe() failed;
(2) The call to fork() failed.

The 0 0 is just that Exim hasn't actually recorded the specific error.
(I will see if I can make it do better in due course.)

Is there a limit on the number of pipes you can create on your system?
Is the process limit being hit?
